Police have given an update over the mysterious death of a man by an office block close to the M275.
As reported, a large police presence attended an area of Wharf Road which was cordoned off by Vivid’s offices as a police tent was erected following a “sudden death” on Friday October 17 around 10am.
Police previously said the body was that of a man in his 30s – with the death being treated as unexplained but not suspicious. No one has been arrested.
A Hampshire & Isle of Wight Constabulary spokesperson previously said: “We were called at around 10:15am on Friday (October 17) to the Wharf Road area of Portsmouth following a report of a sudden death of a man aged in his 30s. The death is being treated as unexplained, but not suspicious, at this time.”
